October winds have grown cold now Autumn has shed her many colors Warm is the glow upon fingers aching from years spent laboring with love and the giving of self to those needing while denying needs of own. Lines now show on skin once smooth, of the tired and weary kind that sleep cannot cure. It is now that the mind flies with time not slowing down long enough to see, but to only capture quick glimpses into possibilities never lingering long enough for visions to focus through the dark in the constant race to catch the light to find the bright spot in any given day... to remain in it's warmth for a few moments, more. I'm getting by but the truth is I'm still standing, knee deep, in yesterdays rain. T Keith. [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (12-27-2006 08:59 AM).] |

It is now that the mind flies with time not slowing down long enough to see, but to only capture quick glimpses into possibilities ~*~ See, little one? Even in the rush and flow of run and go...you still acknowledge... possibilities. Your gentle spirit will always see with that inner eye. Happy New Year, little one! |
